Gotta love cryptic Japanese update information. Whatever, I'll update anyway and see if anything's different.

I did not see any diff with this update.

Was there also an update for the HPX300 ?

 

[videoatlanta]

Nope, Just the 370 series.

I think 9.35 is the latest firmware version for the 300/301, I just did mine last week.

Hallo Gary, which are the benefit of this update? I was on the 9.28 from a lot of time. I've read time ago in the firmware update specs that is for the CAC improvement...but for the stock lens? Or is only a software update that adds new lens models to the CAC option? I don't understand...
Thank you!

Sorry I don't know what the benefits are with 9.35 but it seems to make sense to keep up with the latest firmware as it may have benefits for the stock lens or have other bug fixes.

I have updated our AG-HPX370 to the 12.18-00-0.00 firmware. But I still can't get my Proxy card to work with or without an SD card in the SD slot. Yes, I've plugged the proxy card into slot 2 and a P2 card into slot 1...I fire-up the camcorder, start recording and nothing, no proxy data anywhere. Does anyone know the trick to getting proxy videos to record on a 370?
